AHHHHH! I honestly cannot stop sneezing. I got out of the shower, sat down at my computer and started sneezing and now I cannot stop.
Who hates allergies? TESS HATES ALLERGIES.
Oh, I hate packing, too. But my mom rocks. SHe went to Brandsmart today and bought me new pots and pans, silverware, a crockpot, an iron, a beater, a heating pad, and a whole host of new fun things for my new apartment!! Yay!! Ah! And she's buying us a mattress to. Any idea on a good way to say thanks?!?
Er, what did my bfs parents get us? A whole lotta NOTHING. Except for some grief and being utterly annoying, but you didn't hear that from me.
This message was brought to you by sheer bordem and the inability to breathe.

C'mon! Sometimes sneezing is orgasmic! LOL! Sneezing can be a pain in the butt, though! One time I sneezed 20-some times in a row!!! Allergy season back home SUCKED! P.S. You can say thanks to your mom by cooking her a nice supper with the new crockpot and pans And set the table with the new silverware!

I'm going to cook dinner on Friday night!! The only icky part is that I'm not just cooking for my mom, my bf, and I...but his sister and cousin as well. I can't even talk about it, I get annoyed and just...frustrated cause it shouldn't be that way.
Er, instead of typing the whole thing again, here is an e-mail I sent my friend titled "In Laws"...
Cause dammit, that's what they've become! So I was okay with his sister helping us move right, mostly due to the fact that my father and mother were coming. Now...his cousin is coming in on Wednesday to help so she has an accomplice! Well, f**k. And I hope this boy knows to behave in front of my entirely too stuck up and conservative parents, love it - hope my mom pops her collar.
Anyway, I had originally thought that this fiasco of moving would not last past Friday and everyone would be gone by Friday evening. Well, nooooooooo. My father has to leave Thrusday night because of work, as does my mother on Friday evening. Apparently, his sister and now cousin are BOTH staying at MY new apartment Friday night. On Saturday, the day I thought I would get to Christian every last f****** room in said apartment (including the shower, bathtub, and closets), will now be spent with his sister and cousin and the REST of his bloody f******* family. And when I say 'rest', I mean: Aunt, Uncle, Mother, Father, Girl Cousin, Boy Cousin, and sister.
THEY ARE TAKING OVER MY PERSONAL SPACE.
And he doesn't get it. He says if my mother said she was coming to stay for a month, he wouldn't care and I said to him, my mother wouldn't do that. She'd stay in a hotel.
GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. So now? I'm going to be as annoying as possible in being the *P.E.R.F.E.C.T.* daughter in law. I'm going to cook, invite them to stay Saturday night - make sure if they don't stay, they are in a nice comfy hotel. I'm going to be so insanely perfect it'll hurt.
Basically, in a nut shell, his sister is becoming very intrusive...she doesn't have much of her own life it seems. SHe's a very nice girl, but she's 25 and has yet to leave her parents house...I'm 22 and moving in with her brother. C'mon on...
Do I have a right to be angry??

I actually do think that they are going a little overboard. LOL. You could still "christen" the place (sans closets, kitchen counter, etc.) and make sure to make TONS of noise. They may get embarrassed and 1) leave themselves or 2) never stay overnight again!

I know I realized I spelt Christen wrong after I sent the email, lol. I was so frustrated I couldn't spell! Really, when I'm angry my grammar goes out the window, and the curse words are well...you can tell. :x
There will be no sex on Thursday night because my mom is there, and well...that's just wrong. Lol. And not for nothing, my parents are doing everything for us, I mean to the point of giving us money every month to help with bills. All his family is doing is taking us out for dinner on Saturday night. I'm blessed with parents that can do this, and I understand his parents have no money - but I need a vacuum, and I'd much rather that than some silly dinner at TGIFriday's on Saturday night...

LOL! I didn't even notice! I just put it in quotes for emphasis! It was to give it a "naughty" tone. LOL. Just like the word "naughty." Yah. If your parents are going to be there, nix on the sex!

Yes. Lol. It's horrible enough that they know we're "doing it", haha! This is how intrusive his sister is...My bf and I were having a hypothetical conversation about having kids. We were talking about names, how we would raise them, etc. Well, she decided she didn't like the name I would give any girls I had. My bf and I actually said we liked the name a long time ago...She also didn't agree on the way I would raise them, which is cool - they're not her kids. But not for nothing, the girl couldn't contain herself when a little girl touched her mothers boob, I'm going to take parenting advice on my hyptothetical children from THAT? I think not. I just want to say, "You're 25. Go on 'What Not to Wear", get a make-over, and do us all a favor - get laid." Hmm. I'm being mean? ?? :\

UmmmmHummmm. She is the ONLY one who can ever be in pain, always knows how to handle situations the best (even though she ALWAYS makes crappy decisions), criticizes me for referring to my embryo as an "it" (Helloooo! Gender isn't visible this week!), etc. LOL. Kinda' sounds like my M-O-M!

Oh yah. I referred to it as an "it" when I said, "'It' was so cute on the ultrasound! Just dancing around!"
"Why don't you call it 'the baby?' It makes it sound like it is deformed beyond recognition!"
That kinda' pissed me off!

Cause really, it is an 'IT'! No gender involved, yet! Well, there is, but it's just to early to tell! Silliness. Egotistic silliness.
If I tell you. Ugh. I guess one of their cousins who lives up north came down with pneumonia. We were sitting at the table and she said, "He shouldn't be getting pneumonia, he's too young" (mind you, the boy is like 20). I looked at her and said, "Honestly, it's not that hard to get pneumonia if you don't take care of yourself when you get a bad cold. All it takes is an infection and fluid in your lungs..." And she said I was wrong and someone his age shouldn't be that sick. Last I checked, anyone at any age can get pneumonia???
What do you think it is, really? For them to be this way... Jealously maybe? I do think that's what it boils down to at this point. My parents pay for...everything. She gives her parents money. I'm moving in with her brother, she has yet to have a serious relationship. I don't like to eat at buffets cause they gross me out, she mentioned in front of me, that because of that, I'm stuck up.
Dude. Sorry. I'm not going to go into a place where the food sits there for hours, and some guy goes to the restroom, doesn't wash his hand, grabs some food, and proceeds to drop the tongs into the food. EW. If that makes me stuck up, heck, I'm a spoiled brat.

I think that in general, guys' parents suck/are apathetic, and us gals' parents are the ones who help out with everything. It's that way with me and my husband, and with my best friends and their husbands, and with a bunch of my other friends and family members.
And about the sneezing thing... for some reason I always sneeze about 10-15 times (at least) in a row. Everyone thinks it's just hilaaaarious. But once several years ago, I woke up sneezing in the middle of the night and sneezed for over half an hour straight, no joke!
